Plugin is loading 6 CSS files in the frontend

    Hi there again!

    While checking the performance of my website, I realised that these files will be loaded in the frontend as soon the plugin is activated:

    <link rel='stylesheet' id='wp-components-css'  href='https://localhost/project/wp-includes/css/dist/components/style.min.css?ver=5.3.2' type='text/css' media='all' />	

<link rel='stylesheet' id='wp-editor-font-css'  href='https://fonts.googleapis.com/css?family=Noto+Serif%3A400%2C400i%2C700%2C700i&ver=5.3.2' type='text/css' media='all' />	

<link rel='stylesheet' id='wp-block-editor-css'  href='https://localhost/project/wp-includes/css/dist/block-editor/style.min.css?ver=5.3.2' type='text/css' media='all' />	

<link rel='stylesheet' id='wp-nux-css'  href='https://localhost/project/wp-includes/css/dist/nux/style.min.css?ver=5.3.2' type='text/css' media='all' />	

<link rel='stylesheet' id='wp-editor-css'  href='https://localhost/project/wp-includes/css/dist/editor/style.min.css?ver=5.3.2' type='text/css' media='all' />	

<link rel='stylesheet' id='advanced-bootstrap-blocks-style-css-css'  href='https://localhost/project/wp-content/plugins/advanced-bootstrap-blocks/dist/blocks.style.build.css' type='text/css' media='all' />

    Shouldn’t these files only be loaded in the backend? Thanks in advance!

    @-bene- you are correct. The styles applied to the front-end here were intended only for the editor. Adding the single advanced-bootstrap-blocks stylesheet also enqueued the other styles from WP core.

    I fixed this in my local copy of the plugin and will publish the change this weekend along with a batch of other improvements. Any other nagging issues I can look into for you during this sprint?

    @helpfuldev Awesome to hear! One more question: When adding a background-image to a container, it also appears in the backend so the text inside of it is a bit unreadable. I don’t know if this is a default gutenberg feature or coming from your plugin. Is there a way to get rid of this?

    Thanks again for all of your support!

    @helpfuldev Since the website I am working on is going to be live in a few days, any chance on an update? Or can you tell me how to dequeue the CSS files manually? Thanks in advance and sorry for my impatience!

    @-bene- hopefully I didn’t hold you up (life gets in the way sometimes) but the latest release (1.1.10) should resolve the issue for you. Let me know if it gives you any trouble.

    I did start working on a few other enhancements and am thinking about how to improve the background-image issue you noted–but hit a wall with a difficult programming problem. I’m tabling these efforts to focus on other things for the time being, but am happy to have circled back and seen your response here– www.ads-software.com is still only sending notifications sporadically, in spite of checking the ‘follow up replies’ box. =\

    FYI my gut feeling is the most appropriate solution improvement to the background-image experience will be to circle back to your original feature request: adding background/text color controls to the blocks so you can set a semi-transparent overlay on top of the background-image.

    Thanks for your ongoing patience/feedback!

    Right on time, thanks a lot! Everything is working now and I am happy.

    At the moment I set background-images in the container settings, add a class and then add an overlay with CSS. I prefer working with classes anyway so I’m totally fine with the current approach.

    Depending on the background-image and my pseudo CSS-element not loading into the backend, the text is just sometimes hard to read but is really not a big deal for me.

    So you can mark this one as resolved. ??
